"This campaign has not yet begun." So claims CNN political analyst Jack Valenti on June 17, 2005, in reference to the 2008 presidential election. Make no mistake about it, Jack, the campaign battle began many months ago. It is just starting to heat up. Fact is, Democrats need a win in 2006 and 2008. It is crucial, however, for Democrats to achieve a victory that has been absent for nearly a decade. On that notion, I plan to use this blog for two main purposes: to profile, analyze, and compare the 2008 Democratic presidential contenders, and to discuss and debate Democratic strategy as a whole for the upcoming elections. I hope to generate some good dialogue on the subject and, in doing so, better educate myself and other Democrats on the direction of the party in the upcoming months and years. Comments are very much encouraged. If you would like to contact me, my email address is malkori@gmail.com.
